Shilton Sharpe Quarry, the market leading legal search and recruitment consultancy, has launched a new look for its branding. Today the business has unveiled a new logo alongside a new colour palette and imagery. In addition the business will now be known as SSQ, while its interim recruitment business, SSQ Interim Solutions, has its own logo for the first time.

SSQ wanted the new look to highlight the quality service it is widely known for as well as the highly international nature of its business. Over the last 13 years SSQ has built up an unrivalled track record placing lawyers at all levels of seniority at many of the leading international and domestic law firms as well as the leading major corporates and financial institutions around the world.

SSQ Chief Executive Nick Shilton said:

“I am very pleased to be able to unveil our new look. Since 2003 we have built our reputation as the market leader in legal search and recruitment. We are a highly professional, international and vibrant business and I feel that our new branding reinforces these qualities. In addition, we have long been widely referred to in the market simply as “SSQ”. It was therefore the next logical step to move more formally to this branding.

It was also important for us to highlight our interims business. We recently launched a new website dedicated to the interim legal recruitment market and now as part of our new look, we have launched a new logo and colour scheme specifically for SSQ Interim Solutions, helping it to operate with its own identity alongside SSQ.”
